Southland Hosting is a fully-automated curated platform of managed open source business applications such as ERPNext, Ghost Publishing, Chatwoot, Mattermost, OnlyOffice and more. Each application operates in a contained environment and can be exported to cloud platforms running Docker. The curated applications are used by Southland Systems for our business operations ensuring we are always a customer. Over time Southland Hosting will include hosting for web, email and DNS. Expected launch is late 2026.

Southland Backup is a cloud-based desktop and server data protection solution. Pricing is based on cloud resource allocation; there are no per-client fees. The backup platform features complete backup and restore operations as well as file integrity validation and reporting. Southland Backup is based on decades proven open source software which is actively deployed in enterprise environments. Expected release is 2027.

AI development and training of adaptation models for use with powerful open weight AI models. Progress is not possible due to hardware costs and other constraints. The concept takes business data, such as customer support information, normalizes it into training data for the adaptation model. Alternatively, adaptation models can be built for cloud AI such as OpenAI, Gemini and Grok. The building of open weight inference machines is another option.

Video game development of an isometric short narrative roguelite inspired experience. The game will feature four player co-op with dedicated server support, fully random map generation and varying end conditions. The estimated playtime will be over eight hours. Expected initial itch.io release is spring 2026. Visit the TDG Tiktok for updates and a title screenshot is here.
